Classification of narrow fiberglass fabric under HS 7019.65
Narrow fiberglass fabric is classified under HS code 7019.65. This heading is part of the glass fiber category and specifically addresses open woven fabrics with a width not exceeding 30 cm. The classification is determined by the material (glass fibers), the weave type (open woven), and the physical dimensions (narrow width). Open woven fabrics are those where the warp and weft yarns are spaced to create visible gaps, often used for reinforcement in industrial applications, electrical insulation, or as specialized tapes in construction. The Harmonized System distinguishes glass fiber products based on whether they are rovings, chopped strands, or woven fabrics, and further by the specific weave and width of the fabric.

Codes often confused with 7019.65
Common mistake. It is often confused with HS code 7019.66, which covers "other" (closed) woven narrow fabrics of glass fibers. It is also distinct from 7019.61, which covers broad woven fabrics with a width exceeding 30 cm. If the product is made of glass fibers but is not woven (such as a mat or thin sheet), it would fall under 7019.11 through 7019.19 or 7019.71 through 7019.80.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
